The IKEA x Let’s Go Zero Competition gives schools the chance to kickstart brilliant green projects that cut waste, nurture nature or bring climate learning to life.

The furniture giant IKEA and schools zero carbon campaign have joined forces to help schools create projects that inspire students and the wider community, and shows how climate action is inclusive and fun.

Our winning schools were awarded one of three sustainability product bundles: materials to create a swap shop, an outdoor learning area, or sustainability hub – an indoor space for learning about climate issues.

To win, schools shared a short video (no more than one minute 30 seconds) featuring pupils and teachers, telling judges why they should win the competition and which bundle they’d like. The videos explained the environmental work schools had already done, a little about the students who would use the space, and how the prize would bring positive change to the school and community. 

Applications are now closed.

You could choose from:

• A swap shop, for pre-loved uniform and clothing, like this one at Beith Primary School.
• A sustainability hub for a learning classroom environment, like this one at Christ the King Sixth Form.
• Outdoor seating/equipment for outdoor learning and enjoying time in nature, like this one at Ysgol Gynradd Lochfield.
